I hope this works out, but I seriously have my doubts right now.

I hope Harbaugh threw some passes over his head and threw some in the dirt to give him a feel for what it will be like catching balls from Alex.

This is the weirdest 49ers signing ever.

Im glad we have more talent at wr, but its one of those surreal moves.

When you have Randy I think the way to do it is to throw it short.

Not much to it when you're dealing with deep speed...you take your drop and chuck the ball as far as you can and hope your WR runs under it.

I dont think his deep ball is that bad. Hes just never had a deep threat that didnt suck or have hands of stone.

f**k it, if he's still got some of his speed left, and it sounds like it does, he's going to be great for opening the top off of a defense....going to open up the rest of the field for the 49ers other receivers. Hell at this point, re-sign Morgan, draft Fleener, draft Marvin Jones and I'm good.

Moss is hungry and I believe humble after a year out of football. He's a real threat in the redzone and can still get down the field. One of the greatest athletes in the game ever, and he's still got that.

Harbaugh tossed the bal with him personally, I'll have faith in his decision.

Besides, I'm sure we got him on the cheap and for one year, there is VERY little downside if he doesn't work out. This won't keep us from signing another WR.
